Dealer Invoice and Two Offers by pvignuolo
Apr 23, 2008 (7:58 pm)
Reply
I am currently considering two offers for T&C Sig Series. Both vehicles are Deep Crimson. One has the $1,300.00 MYGIG, the other the $900.00 Security Group. The first has an MSRP of $34,025.00, an invoice of $31,067.00 (per Edmunds) and the dealer is offering to sell it for $31,295.00 before incentives. The second has an MSRP of $33,625.00, an invoice of $30,715.00 (per Edmunds) and the dealer is offering to sell it for $30,625.00.
 
I recognize that the second offer is better, but I guess my question is: Are these offers good for the vehicle?
 
Finally, both dealers claim that their invoice amount is approximately $600.00 more than the Edmunds invoice amount. Is this correct? I am located in central New Jersey.
 
Thanks in advance.

Go to the Chrysler website and click on the Build My Own tab. Configure a vehicle exactly like what the dealer is offering and email me the details, including the MSRP.
 
If you include central NJ zip code I will tell you what the Friends price would be for each vehicle. It is around 1% below invoice before any rebates or other incentives. Rebates vary by region.
 
Some people have posted that they've bought for less than the Friends discount price by using methods such as a fax attack. Anyway, you'll have something to go on if you know the Friends discount price, whether you have a code or not.

I just bought a Grand Caravan SXT with 25L, leather interior group, dual screen video and satellite as the major options. Sticker price was 34,134 including transportation. I ended up paying 25,449.42 after discounts, incentives ect. I didn't trade in, which made the deal a lot easier to make. I have bought from the dealer before (Minot Chrysler Center in Minot, North Dakota) and have never had an unplesant experiance with them. In over 30 years of buying cars, they are the only dealership where I have always left feeling good about the deal. Just about every other car I have ever bought, I have left the dealership feeling "violated" at some level or another. I think we got a fantastic deal as was yours.">link title

Okay, here are the details:
 
Vehicle 1
Base Price: $28,210.00
Package 25L: $ 5,045.00
Deep Crimson: $ 225.00
MGIG w/GPS: $ 1,300.00
Dest. Charge: $ 770.00
MSRP: $35,550.00
DVD Credit: ($ 1,525.00)
Net MSRP: $34,025.00

 
MSRP: $34,025.00
Preferred Price (Friends) Discount: $2,870
Current Rebate: $1,500
Net Price: $29,655

 
Vehicle 2
Base Price: $28,210.00
Package 25L: $ 5,045.00
Deep Crimson: $ 225.00
Security Pkg: $ 900.00
Dest. Charge: $ 770.00
MSRP: $35,150.00
DVD Credit: ($ 1,525.00)
Net MSRP: $33,625.00

 
MSRP: $33,625.00
Preferred Price (Friends) Discount: $2,818
Current Rebate: $1,500
Net Price: $29,307

 
The net price is what you would pay if you had a Friends discount, after the $1,500 rebate. This includes the destination charge.
 
Other than TTL (in some states) the only thing they could add to that price is up to $75 for a documentation fee. Any dealer add-ons, such as aftermarket tinted glass, stripes, etc., would also be extra but nothing else (no dealer prep fees or marketing fees).
 
If they tell you that the Friends price is more than what I listed, ask them to show you the invoice, which will show it in black and white. The invoice is always right but the price estimate I gave you should be very close. Look for the PP (Preferred Price) code on the sheet. Remember what I said about the miscellaneous fees. Is the dealer price quote before or after any rebates?
 
I don't know why it would say that my email box is full, unless you tried to sent it from a source outside of the Carspace forums. My email box is empty.

You've got it... You have to send CarSpace.com e-mails to and from another CarSpace.com e-mail account. It's our form of private messaging.

Looks like offer number two is going to be the winner. It is under invoice, plus dealer number one had offered me $8,000.00 on my trade in on my 2004 PT Cruiser GT, which dropped to $7,000.00 today when I tried to make the deal. I was told that because they dropped the price on the Town & Country, they couldn't offer me as much for my trade. I don't know if they see the inherent flaw in their logic (I talked to my sales person and two different managers, including the manager who offered me $8,000.00 for my trade last Saturday), but I do. Why would I negotiate the price of the Town & Country only to have them drop the trade on my vehicle so that my net was the same. I must look pretty dumb.
